Bed rest vent

If I hear, "I wish I was on bed rest. You must be so relaxed!" I will punch somebody in the face. It has its perks (like getting out of doing the dishes), but not being able to do ANYTHING is a nesting mom's nightmare.

Baby might be here in 9 days (when I go off the Procardia) and all I can do is order stuff on Amazon (that doesn't require assembly) and knit. Yeah, bed rest is great!

I was put back on bed rest yesterday....having a 2yo means I am not really laying in bed though. I am trying my best but in all seriousness it just doesn't work. He needs constant attention. I just hope I can at least make it to 37weeks. So many contractions though.

I really do not like when people tell me how lucky I am to get to be on bedrest. It's so hard as all you lovely ladies know.

I made my DH (dear husband) bring bags of clothes from the nursery to me in bed so I could sort them by size. Now I have to wait for DH (dear husband) to get home to put them away. I felt good sorting but staring at the piles in the basket I just want to go in the nursery and put it all away!!! I also want to set up her pack and play and her bouncer and all the other cool stuff that's just sitting there. I feel like the nesting kicked in right as I was put on bedrest!! Boo.

Hopefully we can all hang in there :)
